JoAnn Hillman of Hamilton Square

JoAnn Hillman, of Hamilton Square, passed away on Sunday, October 6, 2019, surrounded by loved ones, in her home.

Born in Trenton,

NJ, JoAnn was a lifelong area resident. Her passion was education, having taught at many area institutions throughout her long career. JoAnn retired from a position teaching children at Trenton Catholic Academy. She was an alumna of Trenton State, where she earned degrees at both the Bachelor’s and Master’s levels. When not in the classroom, JoAnn was a dedicated wife and mother, selflessly giving her time to whatever her family asked of her. In the free time that she was able to find, she could often be found going for walks, or in her garden, caring for her plants, and watching the hummingbirds and butterflies that would be drawn to them.

Predeceased by her parents, Joseph and Jean Colton and her son, Lt. Keith J. Hillman; she is survived by her husband, Henry Hillman; her sons, Brant and Bryce; her brothers, Mick and John; her sisters, Jean and Sue; her daughter-in-law, Maura Hillman; and her granddaughters, Corey, Kelsey and Kylie.
